I will never understand why so many people hate Cam.

You have taken a trip over to one of those Bama news sites? Any mentioning of Cam's name seems to bring out the crazies. I have never seen such hate directed at someone because he helped a school win. It's like they seem to look for any reason to hate Cam. Kinda make you wonder what is really motivating them.

Alabama and Auburn fans truly despise each other, and not in a "we're constant rivals who ultimately respect our shared history" kind of way, but a "our state sucks balls and the closest thing we have to functioning institutions are our football teams, so we cling to their exploits as they provide the only sense of identity in this god-forsaken hellhole" kind of way.

Wow...thanks for clearing that up. It's mindboggling reading some of those postings..

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
